    No the original Bill was changed to omit buying over state Lines and gave states the power to opt out Medicaid Expansion. Both damaged the ACA

    Lets see what the Senate comes up with.

    They know from the public's reaction to the House version that the electorate will boot them out if they don't produce good affordable health care.

    Don't blame the Republicans for that, not a single one voted for any version of the ACA. All the compromising was to try to get more Democrats on board or they might not have even gotten the simple majority.

    They took a beating in the mid-term 2 times in a row. They went from having the White House and both Houses if Congress in a near super majority in 2008....to this today. The people must not have liked what they did while they were in control or we would be here, but they just can't that forest from the trees.
